95 She is really my little sister

Lin Lihua had no issue with that. Of course as the female lead, it would be best if the designer put enough effort into her costume. If such words came from someone else, she would dismiss it as talking big but coming from Wan Jia, it gave her more confidence.

"What about my birthday dress?" she asked when they were done discussing the costume.

"When is your birthday?"

"This saturday."

"Don't worry, you'll have a super cute dress before Friday." she used her own words.

Lin Lihua blushed and looked at the young girl before her in amazement.

When Wan Jia left, Lin Lihua made a phone call emotionally. "Mommy, guess what? I met Wan Jia. She's so beautiful. Just as beautiful as you and she does everything as if she were the past version of you. She really is my little sister!"

One week went by pretty fast. In the blink of an eye, it was the final day when the designers would present their costumes.

Wan Jia looked at her phone. She had recieved several texts.

[Lin Lihua: Good luck baby girl, I only want to wear your costume.] Since recieving her birthday dress from Wan Jia, she had almost sworn never to wear clothes from other brands. The only thing that held her back was the fact that Wan Jia was still too inexperienced to cater for her extravagant fashion needs. She could also not bring herself to hold back Wan Jia's advancement in career by making her her personal designer.

Wan Jia moved to the next text. [Xuan: Cheering my beautiful Wan. I know you're the best.]

[Handsome Lu: Do you still need luck?] This idiot, did he think she was as narcissistic as he was?

She had saved his contact as 'Handsome Lu' because she couldn't help but think of his handsome face every time he called.

Little Jia had also sent over a photo of a crazed up painting with the words "Congratulations mommy." Obviously, her nanny had helped her take and send the picture.

Wan Jia could only sigh. Truly, like father like child. While people were wishing her luck, these two idiots were sure that she would make it.

It could not be helped. Her costume was different from the rest and had the highest chance of being selected. While the others focused on exposing Lin Lihua's full breasts with deep cleavages, hers shifted the focus from her chest area to her legs.

Everyone was obsessed with Lin Lihua's chest so much that they overlooked the other parts of her body. From their meeting, Wan Jia discovered that this beauty was actually blessed with a lovely pair of long legs.

Who was it that told these designers that Lin Lihua's chest was her only advantage? That wasn't the only thing that could make her look alluring!

Wan Jia's costume was a short black dress. Lin Lihua's legs would obviously look stunning in it. Overally, she would look seductive without being vulgar.

Unfortunately, her speculation was right. She really didn't make the cut. After spending long nights on this project, she had actually failed.

Not wanting to make a fuss unnecessarily, she left quietly.

"I didn't make it." she complained to Lu Aotian who was hugging her affectionately in his arms.

"There's always a next time. Don't think about it too much, alright?" he coaxed her.

"But I spent so much time and effort on it!" she whined.

"Baby, forget about those idiots who don't know how to appreciate talent. I'll get you many huge boxes of candy, mmh?"

"Mmh."

Placated by the mention of candy, the girl stopped sulking and found a more comfortable spot in his embrace to rest like a baby.

Unbeknowst to her, a storm was brewing in Qing Tai Media.

"HOW COULD YOU LET MY COSTUME GO!" Lin Lihua bellowed in the CEO's office. "Is there something wrong with the design department? Are they all blind? ARE THEY ALL FREAKING BLIND?! I DON'T CARE, I'LL ONLY WEAR A COSTUME MADE BY DESIGNER WAN OR PREPARE TO FIND ANOTHER FEMALE LEAD!"

"Lihua, could you please calm down? Let me talk to them."

It was rumoured that Lin Lihua's father was one of the top ten most powerful men in the country. With such a background, even the CEO dared not offend her. These people from the design department were tired of living.

He rushed to the design department followed by the fuming Lin Lihua.

"CEO, Wan Jia's design did not suit our requirements for this costume. The color is too dull, it's too short and..."

Lin Lihua could not have any more of it. "What do you mean too dark, huh? Designer Wan chose the color according to what suits me best and even I know that you like her dress very much. Just admit you were planning to let her go then plagiarize her dress and come up with something similar!"

The manager froze. He did not expect Lin Lihua to see through his plans that fast. He had indeed resorted to do that, but he had been forced.

Those rascals from Climax Studio wanted him to steal one of Wan Jia's drafts and offend her, then they would play the hero that saves the beauty and seek justice for her. That way, Wan Jia would appreciate them and go over to their studio.

Now that Lin Lihua had uncovered the whole plot, he was more or less glad. At least he wouldn't have to dirty the reputation of his company and lose his job. But those idiots would never let him go!
